The Every Child Deserves a Family Act would prohibit any entity that receives federal funds from discriminating against adoptive or foster parents based on sexual orientation, gender identity or marital status.

From hack progressive " renewable energy " articles that are composed of a bunch of made up #s to a post on the low life trash that is Kirsten Gillibrand.

You're on a roll.

She stood behind the Rolling stone's attempt to attack a bunch of innocents students via a false rape allegation.

Even after it was exposed that the girl LIED Gillibrand expressed that it was important not to attack the " victim ".

Shes as bad as it gets when it comes to corrupt Politicians who are blinded by their ideology

Definitely for it. Conservatives should be too if they want to help work on emptying the orphanages or any such government assisted programs.

If they don't go to normal [every child needs a mother and father] people's homes, it should be classified as child abuse IMHO.

I personally know about ten kids who are being raised in homes with same sex parents. All are happy, reasonably mature for their age, social, and otherwise very well adjusted. Not every kid from same sex homes will be so fortunate, mind you, but not every kid from opposite sex homes will be so well adjusted either (for proof, visit your local walmart).

It logically cannot be considered child abuse if children are being raised successfully and, as I mentioned, they are. It cannot automatically be considered abuse because successfully raised children do exist, including my own (my ex wife and her girlfriend). In fact, the biggest issue I've seen among these families, is in one, the parents are a little too lenient with discipline in my opinion (the kids are a bit too willful), but that is still far from abuse.

I was abused growing up, I know exactly what it is like to be beaten, neglected, and manipulated. Please do not use such dire circumstances so lazily going forward.
